Myers v. Lamar County, MS et al

Filing 36

ORDER granting 30 Motion to Amend/Correct; denying 23 Motion to Dismiss Signed by District Judge Keith Starrett on 4/7/2017 (dtj)

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF MISSISSIPPI
EASTERN DIVISION
STEPHANIE L. MYERS
v.

PLAINTIFF
CIVIL ACTION NO. 2:16-CV-198-KS-MTP

LAMAR COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI, et al.

DEFENDANTS

ORDER
Plaintiff filed a Motion to Amend [30] the Complaint. Defendant does not oppose
the motion [34]. Accordingly, the Court grants Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend [30]. In the
interest of efficiency in addressing all pending motions, the Court will deem the First
Amended Complaint [30-1] filed. Nevertheless, the Court orders to Plaintiff to
immediately file the First Amended Complaint [30-1] as a separate docket entry, in the
interest of maintaining a clear, accessible record.
As the Court has granted Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend [30] and deemed the First
Amended Complaint as filed, the Court denies Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss [23] the
initial Complaint as moot. Once Plaintiff files the First Amended Complaint, it will
be the operative pleading.
SO ORDERED AND ADJUDGED this

7TH

day of April, 2017.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
